ホーブトングレートブロードでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

On the north wall is the best single surviving wall painting of the narrative of St Christopher in England. It was restored by a Professor Tristram in the 1930s. The giant figure of the saint bestrides the river opposite the south doorway, just as he does in dozens of East Anglian churches, but here his staff has become a club, and on either bank there are smaller scenes depicting events in his story as recorded in the Golden Legend, a collection of hagiographies compiled in the 13th Century which was hugely popular in the late medieval period as a source for art and storytelling. There are about twenty scenes here. Those to the west of the saint recall his life as a pagan before conversion, and these are mostly lost to us now. But on the east side the scenes are well-preserved, vivid and immediate in their clarity. They show the trials and tribulations he underwent in his life as a Christian, including the occasion on which two women were sent to tempt him in prison

Beautiful spot on the river, with lots of people fishing and enjoying the grassland, with nearby pubs.

A scenic and peaceful footpath tracing the Bure Valley narrow railway line.

The River Bure is a navigable river which flows into Breydon Water in Great Yarmouth. Coltishall bridge about 10 miles inland is the head of navigation, the furthest larger boats can get.

Lovely views from a beautiful church. The narrow spiral stairs and ladders aren’t suitable for very small children or those with mobility issues.

Really nice and easy path that follows the entire Bure Valley Railway line between Aylsham and Wroxham. You can take the train one way and walk the other and there are some great points to turn off and explore especially around the Oxnead area where you can follow the river and rejoin the path later on.

A main Norfolk River with footpaths along much of it meaning great opportunity for walks by the water that are nivable most of the year. This particular section in Coltishall has two pubs and a large grass area for relaxing in the warmer months.

One of the Norfolk Broads' three principal rivers, an amble along the Bure is usually a delight. Coltishall marks the head of the navigable section these days, so you can expect to see boats enjoying the water. Two major tributaries, the Ant and the Thurne join the Bure, before it empties into the sea at Gorleston.
